Kernel 2.2 - It Lives!

I see networking code tweaks, but no changelog. Time to give our old RH 6.2 machines one last kernel-recompile before Red Hat's end-of-life date arrives for 6.2? :-) What I'd like to know is - who else (besides me) out there still has machines running 2.2 and intends to keep it that way?"

    Is it stable enough for prime-time yet? I'm not "upgrading" my 2.0 boxes until I'm sure it is.

    Did anyone ever fix the uptime rollover thing? That's what I'm really waiting for. I'm sick of rebooting every year and a half.
